About Silvez Plus Cream

Silvez Plus Cream is a specialised topical cream used to treat and prevent infections in burn wounds, minor cuts, scrapes, and skin grafts. By combining infection-fighting ingredients with a local numbing agent, it helps protect damaged skin while providing relief from local discomfort. It is primarily prescribed for second- and third-degree burns to keep the wound clean and promote a safer healing environment.

For optimal results, apply it consistently and exactly as directed by your healthcare provider. The frequency of application depends on the severity of the wound and whether the injury is left open or covered with a sterile dressing. Since this is a topical medication, it is applied directly to the skin and is not affected by food intake. Maintaining proper hygiene and a nutrient-rich diet can further support your skin's natural repair process.

While it is highly effective, some users may experience mild side effects, such as temporary burning, stinging, or skin irritation at the application site. In rare instances, serious side effects can occur. If you notice signs of an allergic reaction, extreme skin irritation, or any unusual symptoms, stop using the cream and consult your doctor immediately.

Do not use this medicine if you have a known allergy to sulfonamide medications (sulfa drugs) or any of the other ingredients in the formula. Before starting treatment, tell your doctor if you have kidney or liver issues, or a genetic condition called G6PD deficiency. It is also important to note that this cream should not be used on premature infants or newborn babies under two months of age.

Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you are currently using other topical skin treatments to avoid potential interactions. If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, consult your healthcare provider before using this medicine to ensure it is safe for you and your baby.

Uses of Silvez Plus Cream

Your doctor may recommend this topical cream to help manage the following conditions:

  • Burn wound treatment: Helps prevent and manage bacterial infections in second-degree and third-degree burns, keeping the wound clean.
  • Infection prevention in wounds: Protects open cuts, scrapes, and skin grafts from harmful bacterial and fungal contamination.
  • Pain relief in skin injuries: Numbs the local area to reduce pain and discomfort associated with damaged skin and dressing changes.

Key Benefits

When taken consistently as directed, this cream may provide the following health benefits:

  • Provides dual-action wound care: Combines antiseptic protection with local pain relief. The numbing ingredient helps ease discomfort from raw, burnt, or injured skin, while preventing bacterial growth to reduce the risk of wound complications and support healing.
  • Supports comfortable healing: Keeping the wound moist with this cream may help reduce severe scarring and skin tightness. It can also make dressing changes more comfortable by reducing sticking of the bandage to healing tissue and protecting new skin as it forms.

Directions for Use

  • Follow your doctor’s instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication.
  • Apply a thin layer of Silvez Plus Cream, gently massaging it in until fully absorbed.
  • Avoid touching or rubbing the area after application.
  • Clean and dry the affected area.
  • Wash your hands thoroughly before applying it.

How Silvez Plus Cream Works

Silvez Plus Cream contains three active ingredients that work together to protect and soothe damaged skin: Chlorhexidine gluconate is an antiseptic agent that cleans the skin. It works by disrupting the cell walls of bacteria, effectively killing them and preventing them from multiplying in the wound. Lignocaine is a local anaesthetic that provides rapid, temporary pain relief. It works by blocking the nerve signals that transmit pain from the skin to the brain, numbing the treated area. Silver sulphadiazine is an antibacterial substance that releases silver ions at the wound site. These ions damage the DNA and proteins of bacteria and yeast, stopping them from growing and spreading across the burn or wound surface.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Stay well-hydrated: Drink plenty of water daily to support cellular health and skin regeneration during the healing process.
  • Boost your protein intake: Eat foods rich in protein, such as lean meats, eggs, tofu, and legumes, to provide the building blocks your body needs for tissue repair.
  • Avoid smoking: Refrain from smoking or using nicotine products, as nicotine constricts blood vessels, reduces oxygen flow to the skin, and delays wound healing.
  • Protect the area from sunlight: Keep the healing skin covered or shaded from direct sunlight, as new skin is highly sensitive to UV rays and prone to permanent dark spots.
